APPROVAL OF AGENDA Mr. Crandall moved for approval of the agenda, as published. Ms. Goodwin seconded the motion, which passed unanimously by voice vote. APPROVAL OF ANNUAL MEETING MINUTES: November 5, 2013 Mr. Montaño moved approval of the November 5, 2013, minutes, as submitted. Mr. Crandall seconded the motion, which passed unanimously by voice vote. PUBLIC FORUM AND INTRODUCTIONS Audience members introduced themselves. There were no speakers. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S UPDATE 1. Blue Cross Blue Shield Purchase of Lovelace Health Plan Mr. Tyndall stated that Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Mexico (BCBSNM) and Lovelace Health Plan have come to an arrangement whereby Blue Cross Blue Shield will be purchasing the Medicare Advantage and commercial membership from Lovelace Health Plan. NMRHCA has about 5,000 Lovelace members on its Medicare Advantage plan; however, CMS has not yet approved the movement of the membership to BCBSNM. He said NMRHCA will continue providing services to the Lovelace Medicare Advantage members until approval is given. Mr. Tyndall noted that Albuquerque Health Partners is now part of the Lovelace network, effective immediately. Mr. Tyndall asked for assurances from BCBSNM representative Lori Bell and Lovelace representative Bill Mascolo that they will do everything possible to ensure a smooth and problem‐ free transition for NMRHCA members affected by this move. Ms. Bell stated that BCBSNM has a large internal task force that is working with key Lovelace personnel to see that the transition, scheduled on January 1, 2014, is as seamless as possible. Mr. Mascolo said two large groups (Lovelace and the federal government programs) in the Medicare line of business will be moving over on January 1; and through the first quarter (no later than April 1), they will be migrating all of the commercial groups, including the IBAC. He said he anticipates final approvals to come through in two to three weeks and will keep the NMRHCA informed.

2. Switch Enrollment Update Mr. Tyndall noted the following highlights: ‐‐ About 200 members, or about 3% of Premier Plus members, moved from Premier Plus to Premier. The migration trend continues, but is slowing. At this point about two‐thirds of the members are on Premier and one‐third are on Premier Plus. ‐‐ Because the individual risk pools are stabilizing, there may be a discussion at the annual meeting about having rating differentials for the two risk pools. ‐‐ Main action in this year’s switch enrollment was on the Medicare side. • New United Health Care will pick up about 700 members. Total cost savings should equal about $900,000 depending on risk of members who moved from the higher cost plan. • Presbyterian’s new statewide offering picks up about 300 new members, an 8 percent increase. • Lovelace plans lost 330 members. They are expected to transition to BCBSNM. ‐‐ NMRHCA met in 16 meetings with more than 3,000 members across the state in 14 different communities, and was able to do 600 biometric screenings and 700 immunizations. 3. IBAC Program Evaluation Mr. Tyndall stated that a presentation was made to the Legislative Finance Committee (LFC) by its Program Evaluation Team on November 22, when the Team reported that they didn’t feel IBAC had done a good job in controlling costs with respect to provider reimbursements, among other findings. Mr. Tyndall stated that NMRHCA accepted the findings and made comments, which he summarized for the Board. Key findings ‐‐ “Lack of effective oversight of provider rates and quality improvement has made employee health care less affordable.” Mr. Tyndall said NMRHCA agreed that the industry as a whole needs to evolve beyond the traditional fee‐for‐service reimbursement system. In fact, as part of the last procurement process, the IBAC specifically made sure it had points assignments to the health plans that were showing the most progress in evolving away from the fee‐for‐service model. There has also been some progress with the health plans in the hospitals in getting bundled payments for ER and outpatient surgery services. IBAC has met directly with ABQ Health Partners and Presbyterian Medical Group and is working toward developing some value‐based reimbursement models.

‐‐ “Health care spending for IBAC agencies has continued to rise at unsustainable levels.” Mr. Tyndall said NMRHCA’s response was that spending on a per‐member basis in FY2009 was about $417 a month, and is projected at $418 per month in FY2014, so has been flat for five years. NMRHCA acknowledged that some of the reasons for that are the changes the agency has made to the plans, with higher deductibles and out‐of‐pocket expenses. Key recommendations ‐‐ “Require the NMRHCA to participate in the joint purchase of health care and ancillary services with the consolidated health care finance entity.” Mr. Tyndall said a main recommendation was that the benefits of Albuquerque Public Schools, the Public School Insurance Authority and the state’s Risk Management Division be consolidated into a newly created healthcare agency. While NMRHCA was not included in that particular recommendation, it was recommended that NMRHCA be required to participate with that consolidated healthcare finance entity. He said NMRHCA would welcome that prospect. ‐‐ “Actively participate in provider rate development by establishing acceptable rates for state‐ sponsored programs, allowing no rate changes without state approval….” Mr. Tyndall said NMRHCA will continue to work through its health plan partners, as well as directly with health care delivery systems, to improve efficiencies. As Medicaid, Medicare and commercial payers all look to limit or reduce their reimbursements, it is important that the combination be managed in a manner that does not worsen the existing provider shortage in the state. 4. 2014 Proposed Legislation Mr. Tyndall said staff met with LFC Chairman Varela about NMRHCA’s 2014 proposed legislation to increase the employer and employee contribution rates, and Chairman Varela recommended an alternative scenario that would spread the employee increase over a 6‐year period at .125 percent rather than .25 percent per year. The NMRHCA had originally suggested phasing in the employee increase of .75 percent over 3 years, and phasing in the employer piece of 1.5 percent over 6 years. Mr. Tyndall reviewed a graph reflecting how the employer and employee contribution increases would affect solvency in each of the 6 years. He stressed that these solvency gains are strictly the result of the contribution increases, however, and do not include other elements of the Five Year Plan. Mr. Tyndall noted that other major components of the Five Year Strategic Plan were: ‐‐ Phase out “family coverage” subsidies for retirees with multiple dependent children ‐‐ Increase cost sharing on prescription coverage (stabilize plan/member share percentage) ‐‐ ‐Increase sharing of pre‐Medicare plans

Implement graduated minimum age requirement (to receive subsidies) Increase years of service required to receive maximum subsidy Reduce pre‐Medicare retiree subsidies Reduce pre‐Medicare spousal subsidies Implement enhanced wellness programs
‐‐ All elements of the strategic plan combined would extend the solvency of the program from 2029 through 2043 and more closely align benefits with contributions over the life of the program. Board members discussed strategic options. Ms. Goodwin stated that the Board should continue looking at wellness issues, as this is the one mechanism the NMRHCA has in actually bending the cost curve and adding years of solvency to the plan. Mayo Clinic has found that a $100 gift certificate gets about 75 percent compliance in getting a health risk assessment, and a $240 a year premium reduction results in about 87 percent compliance. She commented that obviously getting the health risk assessment is only the first step, because then people have to become engaged in managing their chronic diseases, etc. Mr. Linton agreed with Ms. Goodwin’s comments He said he would like to see a major push in this direction, and suggested that staff prepare recommendations for Board review in the near future. He pointed out that enhanced wellness programs are part of the NMRHCA Five Year Strategic Plan. Mr. Tyndall agreed to present a report in the spring with recommendations that could be considered at the annual meeting in July. He added that there are strong arguments both for and against wellness programs with studies to back up both points of view. Mr. Propst commented that what bends the cost curve are employer‐employee contributions and minimum retirement ages, and not employee wellness programs. He added that the Board has to take into consideration what kind of physical shape the population is when it enters the program and whether those people the state sends into the program are healthy and eating right. He commented that clearly they are not. He said this is not to say the NMRHCA shouldn’t implement wellness programs, but it has to do things outside of that if it wants to make a difference. Mr. Propst said he has long advocated the idea of having a nurse in the office downstairs who is available to the members whenever they walk in and can discuss their medications with them and other health maintenance matters. Ms. Goodwin agreed that a health risk assessment on its own is worthless if it is not accompanied by clinical biometric screenings to identify health conditions that can then be managed in conjunction with health professionals such as nurses, coaches, or health educators. Mr. Montaño said the NMRHCA already has a wellness program, and he would be interested in knowing what percentage of members take advantage of the free screenings and other free benefits offered.

Ms. Sucher noted that APS employees were required to have the biometric screening this year, and any smokers had to pay a higher rate. Mr. Tyndall noted that the Board previously voted against the idea of a smoker’s differential. Chairman Sullivan said Ms. Goodwin seemed to be suggesting a two‐tiered incentive, one for the assessment and one for follow‐up. He said he would like to know what the cost would be and how that cost could be offset with premiums. Ms. Goodwin suggested that any discussion include moving away from the fee‐for‐service model and into paying for outcomes. Chairman Sullivan suggested an in‐depth discussion in advance of the July annual meeting. Board members discussed holding a special meeting and having the Executive Committee work with Messrs. Tyndall and Archuleta to schedule a date. 5. SIC Investment Update ‐‐ As of October 31, the NMRHCA fund balance was $321,659,043. ‐‐ The SIC will potentially vote in December to allow the NMRHCA to participate in some alternative investment pools. The Council Investment Council unanimously endorsed a proposal to allow the NMRHCA to invest in all of the alternative investment classes.

House Bill 27 House Bill 27 House Bill 27 amends the Retiree Health Care Act by increasing the employer and employee contribution rates paid to the Retiree Health Care Fund. The employee increase will begin in FY15 from its current level of 1 percent to 1.75 percent over a 6 year period (FY15 – FY20). The employer increase will begin in FY15 from its current level of 2 percent to 3.5 percent over the same time frame (FY15 – FY20).

Purpose of Legislation Provisions within House Bill 27 combined with NMRHCA’s Five Year Strategic Plan will extended the solvency of the program from current estimates of 2029 through 2043. This request supports the purpose of the Retiree Health Care Act “to provide comprehensive core group health insurance for persons who have retired from certain public service in New Mexico.” Background Laws 2009, Chapters 287 (House Bill 351 ‐ Varela) and 288 (House Bill 573 ‐ Heaton) provided the New Mexico Retiree Health Care (NMRHCA) program with a graduated employee/employer contribution increase (1.95 percent to 3 percent of payroll) beginning in FY11 and concluding in FY13. In addition, Chapter 288 includes the following section: “...At the first session of the legislature following July 1, 2013, the legislature shall review and adjust the distributions pursuant to Section 7‐1‐6.1 NMSA 1978 and the employer and employee contributions to the authority in order to ensure the actuarial soundness of the benefits provided under the Retiree Health Care Act” (10‐7C‐15‐G).

24
Fiscal Implications Upon full implementation in FY20 an additional $90 million per year will be directed toward the Retiree Health Care Fund as compared to FY14. Total recurring General Fund impact will be approximately $30 million with the remaining balance of employer contributions coming from federal, other state funds and internal services funds. Currently an employee earning an annual salary of $40,000 pays $15.39 per pay period and the employer pays $30.77 for a total of $46.16 per pay period. Under the proposal, the same employee will pay $26.93 and the employer will pay $53.85 for a total of $80.78 per pay period. Overall, net take home pay will be reduced by $1.92 each pay period for the first year, $3.84 the second year, $5.76 the third year, $7.69 the fourth year, $9.62 the fifth year and $11.54 the sixth and final year. For every 0.375 increase in employee/employer contributions to the program (as proposed above), the period of time the program is expected to remain solvent will grow between 2 – 3 years while the year the program is expected to deficit spend will be deferred by 1 ‐2 years. The graph below illustrates the impact of the proposed increase over the 6 year period extending the solvency of the program through 2041.

Solvency
Other Substantive Issues The proposed legislation is a major component of the NMRHCA Five Year Strategic Plan adopted by its board of directors in October 2012, to extend the solvency of the program through 2043. Other major components of the plan include: Phase out “family coverage” subsidies for retirees with multiple dependent children; Increase cost sharing on prescription coverage (stabilize plan/member share percentage); Increase cost‐sharing of pre‐Medicare Plans; Implement graduated minimum age requirement (to receive subsidies); Increase years of service required to receive maximum subsidy (currently 20 years); Reduce pre‐Medicare retiree subsidies; Reduce pre‐Medicare spousal subsidies; Implement enhanced wellness programs All elements of the strategic plan combined will extend the solvency of the NMRHCA program from 2029 through 2043 and more closely align benefits with contributions over the life of the program.

Employee/Employer Impact Employee Impact Example:
An employee earning $40,000 annually currently pays $15.39 per pay period (1%) which will increase to $26.93 (1.75%) over a 6 year period. Net take-home pay will be reduced each pay period by the following amount in each successive year:
FY15 - $1.92
FY16 - $3.84
FY17 - $5.76
FY18 - $7.69
FY19 - $9.62
FY20 - $11.54
Employer Impact
Employer Impact Example:
An employer (for each $40,000 employee) currently pays $30.77 (2%) per pay period
Each .25% increase will result in $3.84 increase in contribution.
A 1.5% increase will result in an increased contribution of $600 annually
Each .25% increase in employer contribution will have an approximate $5 million impact on the general fund

FY15 Legislative Finance Committee/Executive Recommendation Comparison Overall, the FY15 appropriation recommendations proposed by the Legislative Finance Committee and Executive provide for a range of growth between 6.5 and 9 percent for the Healthcare Benefits Administration Program with the Executive recommendation matching our request. The request assumed a 4 percent growth in participation and 5 percent growth in medical trend. In addition, both recommendations provide for one additional FTE; however, the Executive recommendation limits the growth in Program Support to $171 thousand as compared to $224 thousand as recommended by the LFC. The total dollars amounts recommended by each group are shown below in Table 1 (dollar amounts shown in thousands):

Ultimately, the budget scenario as recommend by the Executive provides the Retiree Health Care Authority with the greatest ability to accommodate the projected revenues and expenditures for FY15. However, at the conclusion of the presentation before the House Appropriations and Finance Committee – NMRHCA staff indicated our ability to accommodate either budget scenario assuming we continued to maintain our Budget Adjustment Request authority allowing the agency to increase its budget (without limit) in the Healthcare Benefits Administration Program. House Appropriations and Finance Committee Adopted Recommendation On January 15, 2013, the House Appropriations and Finance Committee listened to staff presentations made by Senior Fiscal Analyst, Anne Hanika‐Ortiz and Executive Analyst, Robert McGrail. The presentation included a description of the information summarized above. At the end of the presentation, Representative Salazar asked about House Bill 27 and its effect on our program while Representative Varela asked a few general questions about our request and our authorized BAR authority. In conclusion, the LFC recommendation was adopted by the Investments and Insurance Subcommittee to include the consensus performance measures and targets highlighted below. The committee adoption will be reported to the House Appropriations and Finance Committee on Tuesday, January 28th.

New Mexico Retiree Health Care Authority Fiscal Year 2014 Second Quarter Review Health Care Benefit Fund As of December 31, 2013, expenditures are $122,001,100 and revenues are $139,518,800 creating a surplus of $17,517,700. As a result, management is projecting revenues in excess of expenditures of $35.2 million in FY14 (up $3.3 million from the 1st quarter projection) based on a similar utilization pattern for hospitals and physicians, growth in membership, migration between health plans and estimated revenues. Notably, the projection for miscellaneous revenues has improved as the payment received from CMS grew to $7 million as compared to approximately $350 thousand for the same time period last year. Claim expenditures through the second quarter of FY14 as compared to the same time frame in FY13 have increased by approximately 5.3 percent. Upward pressures include: 1. The Healthcare Plans have grown by 1,907 members (278 non-Medicare/1,629 Medicare) or 4 percent compared to the same time frame in FY13 2. Claim costs have increased by $6 million or 5.3 percent (1.3 percent medical trend) 3. Participants have begun to meet their deductibles and annual out-of-pocket limits Downward pressures include: 1. Under the pre-Medicare plans - continued migration toward lower premium/higher out-ofpocket costing plans as participation in the Premier Plus Plans shrunk by over 900 members while participation in the Premier Plans grew by nearly 1,200 members. 2. Under the Medicare plans – Medicare Advantage Plans grew by over 900 members compared to 600 in the supplement plan. 3. Increased cost sharing on the prescription drug plan 4. Limited growth in dependent participation (24 members) Current projections indicate sufficient budget authority exists to cover claim costs through the remainder of FY14. NMRHCA staff will continue to monitor and report revenues and expenditures in order to identify significant changes from projected amounts. Revenues through the second quarter of FY14 have grown by $9.3 million, or 7.2 percent compared to the same time period in FY13. This increase was led by an $8 million, or 15.3 percent increase in retiree premiums (not on a per member basis), $1.1 million growth in transfers from the Taxation and Revenue Suspense Fund and $600 thousand growth in miscellaneous revenue. However, these increases have been partially offset by marginal declines in employer/employee contributions and interest income.
35
Please note that $2.5 million or 5 percent of the growth in retiree contributions can be attributed to last year’s premium holiday (December 2012) supported by funds received through the Early Retiree Reinsurance Program. In addition, to the 4 percent growth in membership --- retirees are now paying approximately 6 percent more on a per member basis.
Below is a summary of the cash contributions made to the SIC through the first half of FY14:
Transfer Effective August 1, 2013 October 1, 2013 November 1, 2013 Total
Amount Transferred $ 20,000,000 $ 3,500,000 $ 5,500,000 $ 29,000,000
The $20 million transfer made on August 1, 2013, is entirely comprised of revenues earned and received in FY13. Program Support Fund The adjusted operating budget for FY14 is $2,748,300. As of December, 2013, expenditures are $1,279,900 with supporting transfers made from Health Care Benefit Fund. Current projections indicate sufficient budget authority exists to satisfy our financial obligations through the remainder of FY14.
